Sua Lai Kim claimed trial to a charge of not complying with a written notice by the Public Prosecutor (who is also the Attorney-General) to declare all sources of income and properties she owned, between January 1 to April 30, last year.
The charge is under Section 49 (i) of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
Sua could be fined a maximum of RM3 million and jailed for up to five years, if found guilty.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Nur Ashikin Mokhtar asked Judge Nurhayati Mohamad Yunus to set bail at RM50,000 and for Sua’s passport to be surrendered to the court.
Defence counsel Jagjit Singh requested for a lower bail amount as Sua has four young children, aged between two and 10.
Nurhayati then set bail at RM20,000 and set December 20 for mention.
It is also learnt that Sua is the wife of Law Yong Chow, whose charred remains were found in Lumut, Perak, on January 17, last year.
The deceased, who was 43, had an interest in a mining business. He was abducted from a foot reflexology centre near his home in Berapit here, three days prior to being found dead.
